...and..a linen summer dress.... and a custom made item for my o/h's birthday this week...which will be coming from Bulgaria...
 

I had bought some Sketcher's sandals on Amazon and got them today. I'm afraid I may have to send them back because as they do fit they are not adjustable and seem to be cutting the circulation off in my feet. They also made a very loud suctioning noise between the sandal and my foot when I walk--geez, I'm going to keep them on for awhile and see if that changes. I may have to just stop trying to buy any types of shoes or sandals online. I have the worst luck with them it seems.
 
I bought an Instant Pot pressure cooker a couple of weeks ago and I love it, between this and the air fryer and microwave, I can't remember the last time I used my stove top and rarely use my oven, which is a blessing because sometimes the pilot light won't work and I had to get on my knees and try and light the thing manually with a gaslighter

... and trying to keep one hand on the gas knob while also trying to reach to the back with a gaslighter is work for a contortionist, not a 70+ yr old
 
Two expensive roses, one a climber, at the actual garden store. I couldn’t find acorn squash, which is yummy, so finally found some at a nursery. Went to two different ones got a rose and a child’s rake at one store, normal garden equipment is too heavy for me. And a climbing rose at another.

Had husband go to Costco and buy two garden trellises. They were 38 at Lowe’s and 19 at Costco. I am going to put them in front of the outdoor storage place for our containers and put the climber in front of it.

Did not buy any more tomatoes as I have a million of them. Still trying to figure out how that happened. 😂. Oh, and bought a Hubbard squash. All the pots had two plants each in them, so I scored. It will be squash and tomato city and I have had a few strawberries ripen so fun.

I know this may tick off some cat lovers, but I just bought a bottle of Cat Mace. I have a stray that likes to lay on top of my Dalmatian bellflowers and mashes them. I had considered an electric fence, but this may be a more humane method

They have some homeopathic (natural) cat spray repellent that I have used when cats were marking their territory on my porch many years ago. It does them no harm but keeps them away.
 
Whenever I go to a grocery store without my husband, the clothing stores have been calling me and insisting that I come in. Found a T-shirt that isn’t too long and a blouse that I’ll wear like a summer jacket. It’s time for me to get rid of all the t-shirts in my closet that are too long. Might head to a charity store tomorrow so someone else has something to buy.

I presently have 4 pairs of shoes that I bought online that I tried to wear, but can't. Of the two pair I wear, one is sandals I got at Walmart in 2018 and the other is a pair of Talbots that I got at a thrift store and they were brand new never worn. I have been using them for years now. I might look for another pair of those. But no more online shopping for shoes.

My husband has been buying his New Balances online for years. He has a general style preference and knows the size and width particulars in that brand. They arrive a few days later and fit perfectly. Every few years I buy a new pair of Merrell shoes. Same situation.
